TrackIR 5.1 software released, with 64-bit support

[shu77]

Agree, Track IR is more important than pretty much any other add on except a joystick.

At first, I also hassitated whether to buy TrackIR. After a couple of hours, I got used to it. It is a must for any sim. I cannot do without it in any sim.

 

I sometimes try to pan or zoom the view in Youtube A-10 videos, as if I had my TrackIR operating on Youtube videos:)

Where do I find the DCS profile for trackIR, I had it, but when I updated to 5.1 beta 2 it went away. Sorry if this is has been addressed, im usually pretty good and figuring stuff out on my own.

 

Thanks.

I'm using Track IR 5.1 Beta 2 right now. Has anyone noticed that the TIR software has problems detecting the device? It sometimes recognizes it again when I unplug and replug the device in its USB slot, but never immediately upon startup. Am I the only one with this problem?

This seems to have to helped me:

I'm having problems with TrackIR blocking F7, F9 and F12 even when i set a new profile with other bounded keys as global. Exiting TrackIR and the F keys work again. Anyone else have this?

Im having the same problem, they're no good for comm use even after I changed the hot keys for track ir 5.1 beta 2

 

p.s. any ideas how I get the DCS track ir profile?

Same problem. Even making the profile exclusive I keep getting the F7, F8, F9, and F12 keys reserved despite them being set to other keys and disabled, un-trapped, etc.

 

EDIT: Fixing some problems. First, don't use complicated names for your profile names. TIR will try to make a filename called "DCS:A-10C Warthog" but absolutely fail at it because Windows won't let you name files that way. Also, pay attention to the software that TIR thinks is running or make your "A10" profile exclusive (always on regardless of program detect).

im having the same problem. Is there a fix? Also what is the best settings for use with DCS A-10? I cant find a comfortable setting.

There's a beta 3 release out which is supposed to fix the issues of TrackIR capturing the function keys regardless of your profile setting. I have yet to try it.
